Our qb in the hs playoffs last year got a turf toe 1st play of 3rd round. Missed about 2 months of activity.

most of our players werent known for defense before entering UHā¦ shead, robbie and taze are the few exceptionsā¦ we normally go for high power offensive guys and teach them defense, like tramon markā¦
he is 6ā4 so he has the body to play defense ā¦but we wont know the quality till he gets here

Armbrester is not a guard at all and long way from having ball handling and shooting to even think about it.
He really doesnāt have a position but right now it is as a small 4 where might could be a + if at all.

Be hard for Shead to not play 36+ min/ night
Maybe we see White playing the wing on occasion just to give a few min rest for the guards.
Get well soon, Marcus!

Heās done for the year
i actually think robbie has the handles to play guard, had a couple shake a backs this seasonā¦ he just isnt coordinated, he looks lost on offenseā¦and he cant shotā¦ i wouldnt mind the non shooting if he was making some smart cuts and great off ball movement but he isnt there yet
Thatās literally exactly what Sampson said he does
Great point but unfortunately we kinda past having a choice. Everyone is going to have to play and play multiple positions. Shead canāt play 38 minutes a game every game. Everyone is going to have to step up. And I promise you Ryan will be out there as well.
Yes, I agree. But our defensive scheme isnāt that easy to learn.
Like new guys got here in August and practiced all the way to October. And werenāt great our first game defensively vs Hofstra
How quickly can Sharp become a pretty good defender? Cause right now Iād assume heās below average
Ryan Alvin aināt getting minutes. Cmon letās not get crazy. I like Alvin too
Look I totally understand your concern. My point is It doesnāt really matter. We are past having luxuries, we are no longer a deep team. We only have 1 Pg/ball handler. We need bodies. Sharp can at least shoot and handle the ball. But whatever Sampson decides is probably the right position lol
Ramon I see getting 15-20 minutes per game.
Robbie getting 10-15 minutes per game
And Sharp maybe coming in later this season. Like late January
Ryan was put in before Robbie last game. I promise you he will see more minutes than just getting in the game the last 30 seconds. Not saying heās going to start playing 20+ minutes but yeah heās definitely an option now
Look folks, i hate to break the bubble of some you. But if Marcus is done, this season is done. I think we will still have a winning season but chance of NCAA tournament is less then 50%. We will still play crazy defense but winning is not a miracle. It is a hard and serious business and you need the horses to do it.

Walker is already at 15 minutes a game. Heās now the first man off the bench for the guards

Ryan played almost 6 minutes against Tx St.
But can he and Ramon play enough quality minutes to rest Shead?
I hope so man. Sampson will have his hands full
*Full strength we were a Final Four contender.
*With Marcus, we were a Sweet 16/Elite 8 type team.
*without Marcus, we are still a tourney team. Shead, Edwards, Fabian, Carlton is enough to make the tournament.
You just gotta adjust your pace of play to allow guys like Shead and Edwards to play a bulk of minutes

Get well soon Marcus! Side noteā¦ where in the hell are we going to find 17pts per game
